The satellite was named after SWSU's long-standing partner, UTE University, and the Galapagos Island province of Ecuador, whose territory it will monitor from space.
In addition to remote sensing of the Earth's surface, the UTE-GALÁPAGOS satellite will collect background radiation data in a low orbit of 400-500 km. Furthermore, UTE-GALÁPAGOS is equipped with an innovative ADS-B module. This technology allows pilots and air traffic controllers to monitor aircraft movements with greater accuracy and provide crews with more detailed situational awareness to enhance flight safety. UTE-GALÁPAGOS will also transmit Earth images, greetings, and images in SSTV format to a ground station.
